	Raincoats
		We believe "The Kitchen Tapes" is by far The Raincoats best and most representative recording, as the ladies really "cut loose" and were not limited by studio restrictions, which can produce anxiety, apprehension, and caution in a young band used to playing before a live audience.
		In 1982 Neil Cooper, ROIR founder, approached Ruth Polsky, The Raincoats American coordinator, with the concept of recording them live at The Kitchen For The Performing Arts, in NYC, where they were scheduled to perform.
		Perhaps this is the main reason Shirley O'Loughlin, The Raincoats long time manager, and the ladies themselves agreed to the project, interim financing, so to speak.

	The Raincoats
		The group's subsequent albums included Odyshape, which has a reputation as some sort of mystical transcendence of rockdom into New Age textures; The Kitchen Tapes, a live recording from December 1982; and Moving.
		Shortly after the release of their first album The Raincoats in 1979, Palmolive left the band to seek enlightenment in India.
		Slightly older than other bands of their era -- Vicky and Gina were in their mid-twenties and Ana had already turned thirty -- The Raincoats were described by many as a feminist band, with their aggressive, rowdy songs about male-female relationships, female independence, even rape.

		The Kitchen Tapes [Live]; Audio CD ~ Raincoats (Artist)
		A triumph of lo-fi amateurism over musicianship, the Raincoats took as their blueprint sound a harsh blend of clashing guitar, shrill violin and ramshackle drumming; but could still fashion songs of the most heart-breaking beauty out of such crude materials.
		Like Gang of Four and other proto-political punk bands of the late 1970s, the Raincoats would frequently employ a fierce political agenda, with songs such as "The Professionals", which angrily tells of soldiers raping girls.
